Shut up, San Francisco.

We've got a Monday Night Football game to talk about this morning (for another 13 minutes by the start of this post).  Its RGIII vs Colin Kaepernick.  (I think that's how you spell it), and some receivers and runners.  I've started to notice that every time someone mentions SF in any context, I immediately and involuntarily roll my eyes to some degree.  And I feel that its justified for many reasons, despite everyone else I know having such a hard on for the City by the Bay.

SF is really kind of all over the map this season.  They've had some good wins, and some ugly losses.  One of those losses was to my lovely Saints (Geaux Saints!).  I think popular opinion has SF taking this game, and probably rightfully so.  However, the Redskins are a team that is amazing at letting you think you can predict an outcome to an almost 100% degree level of certainty and yank it away from you.  And just when you think, "There is no possible way they can lose this game", they will find a way.  THEY WILL FIND IT.  I feel like the Skins should change their anthem from the Hail to the Redskins to the "I need a hero" song.  Its apropos right now.  Skins fans are some of the most die-hard fans I've ever met, despite Dan Snyder giving them every reason to jump ship he could possibly think of - including trying to charge extra to tail gate (he's going to football hell for that one).  So hopefully the Skins can pull of a W in prime time and give the fans just a little glimmer of hope. 

I swore to god I would never step foot in the city of San Francisco.  Unfortunately I went like three years ago.  It was July.  And it was cold.  It could have been super-awesome-city-fun-time-forever and the fact that it was cold in July just made me even more pissed off.  And the aggressive homeless and/or hipsters...wow.  Anyway, their QB's trademark is kissing his biceps.  If that doesn't win you "Biggest Douche in the Universe" Award then frankly I don't know what will.  And lets talk about their coach trying to challenge like he's Sean Payton.  Negatron my good man, negatron.  I could almost FEEL the tantrum waves coming through the TV when you lost your second challenge.  It. Felt. Wonderful. 

Heads up - Saints game this Sunday got flexed to Prime Time at 8:30 EST (yay!).  Carolina is apparently an alright team and so Rog' decided he wanted to make some money off them and so on and so forth.  Cam - meet me at Camera 3.
Really dude?  That guy barely even touched you and you flew like
you were on a SouthWest flight.  Uncool.  Leave that shit for FIFA, man. 
What's next?  You going to bring your vuvuzela?
 Try that shit with the Saints and see what happens. 
Plus, now that every ref has seen you make an ass out of them
and then SMILE about it like you got away with something?
 - our defense is going to punch you in the face
and guess who "didn't see it"?
